Members, please note: officers' cellphone numbers and patrol schedule are only distributed by email. If you don't have this month's schedule, please contact us!

WHO TO CALL (OR EMAIL) AND WHEN

IN AN EMERGENCY OR TIME-SENSITIVE SUSPICIOUS SITUATION
In such cases:
  • Always call 911 first
  • If there is a patrol team shown on duty in the schedule (which we send to you only by email) – call them. Both the North and South patrol teams will respond to calls from members throughout Virginia Highland.
  • Let the officers know of the problem and where you live
  • They will come right to your house
  • DON'T HESITATE TO CALL OUR OFFICERS
  • IT'S BETTER TO CALL TOO MANY TIMES THAN NOT ENOUGH.
  • THIS SYSTEM WORKS ONLY DURING HOURS THAT OUR OFFICERS ARE WORKING

NON EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
Examples of such situations:
  • If you want to inform our officers that you’ll be out of town so they can keep an extra eye on your property
  • If you would like an officer to check out a security “situation” which is not time-sensitive – just a generally suspicious situation
You can either:
  • call the patrol cellphone number (which is sent to you in the monthly newsletter by email only)
  • email them (email address is sent to you in the monthly newsletter by email only)
